Lead - Product Consulting
The Lead Consultant in Product Consulting is a senior practitioner who shapes product direction, translates business goals into clear requirements, and guides teams through structured, user-informed delivery. You help turn goals and ideas into clear work that teams can build and validate. At this level, you lead discovery and requirements work, translate ambiguity into actionable backlogs, and collaborate with UX, engineering, architecture, and delivery leads to ensure solutions are feasible, intuitive, and aligned to measurable outcomes. You keep teams aligned by making decisions, constraints, and priorities clear and easy to act on.

Responsibilities
Project / Program Leadership
You lead discovery and alignment so teams understand what needs to be built, what constraints matter, and what decisions are required.
• Lead discovery activities to map business goals, user needs, system constraints, and decision points.
• Facilitate alignment workshops (for example, story mapping, value mapping, and process flow sessions).
• Identify functional, non-functional, operational, and regulatory requirements early and track them through delivery.
• Own or co-own refinement across one or more workstreams to keep work ready for delivery.
• Maintain traceability from concept through validation, including workflows, business rules, and acceptance criteria.

Delivery and Consulting Excellence
You translate discovery into clear backlog items and requirement artifacts, lead prioritization, and support the team through planning and delivery.
• Translate discovery outcomes into epics, features, and user stories with clear acceptance criteria.
• Partner with stakeholders, UX, engineering, and architecture to align goals, constraints, and feasibility.
• Lead prioritization and tradeoff conversations using user needs, business value, technical considerations, and risk.
• Provide requirements clarification during planning and active development cycles.
• Produce requirement artifacts such as user stories, business rules, workflows, wireframe annotations, and process maps.
• Use AI tools where appropriate to support backlog analysis, drafting, impact analysis, and documentation.

Mentorship and Team Development
You raise the quality of requirements work by coaching others and reinforcing strong backlog habits during delivery.
• Mentor junior Product Owners and Business Analysts on discovery, analysis, facilitation, and communication.
• Coach teams on story writing, acceptance criteria, and maintaining backlog quality through delivery.

Growth and Innovation
You improve how teams work by contributing reusable assets and encouraging modern practices that increase clarity and speed.
• Contribute to playbooks, templates, and best practices based on delivery lessons learned.
• Champion modern PO/BA practices such as dual-track discovery, value modeling, and outcome-based roadmapping.
• Identify opportunities for automation and AI-driven insights that improve requirement quality and decision speed.

Requirements
This role is a fit for someone who can lead discovery and requirement definition, facilitate alignment with senior stakeholders, and keep teams moving with clear backlog content.
• Bachelor’s degree preferred.
• 6+ years of experience in product ownership, business analysis, or hybrid PO/BA roles.
• Strong experience translating business needs into epics, features, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
• Experience delivering with Scrum, Kanban, dual-track discovery, and hybrid approaches.
• Experience partnering with UX, engineering, and architecture to ensure requirements are feasible and outcome-focused.
• Strong elicitation, decomposition, and documentation skills with strong analytical problem solving.
• Strong facilitation skills and experience leading alignment sessions with senior stakeholders.
• Experience with tools such as Jira, Azure DevOps, and collaboration tools such as Miro or Lucid.
